Barrel Building Competition

A hive of activity fills the air when delegates are transformed into working Coopers to complete this task against the clock and more importantly, against each other! The competition would take the following format; your host will explain the competition and will then demonstrate the task. 6 teams of 6 (3+3) will be decided. The first ½ of each team will have to dismantle and rebuild a Brandy barrel then roll it to where the second half of the team, again dismantle and rebuild it before rolling it back to its start position. Team Problems – if the barrel is reassembled badly it will be very difficult (but entertaining) to see them try to roll it and stop it from falling apart. The team that completes the task in the shortest time and to a satisfactory standard is judged as the winners.
